After hesitating for a moment, Lian Fan hesitated and said, "I have heard about some of the things here before in Yunsheng City! Young Master, have you heard about Lian Haicheng and Fenghua City?"
Zong Shou carefully thought about it in his mind. The other Zong Shou was a person who didn't know the world. He definitely didn't exist in his memory for thirteen years.
The only thing he could rely on was the vast number of classics he had read in his previous life. It took a while before Zi Sheng was finally found.
They are both medium-sized and low-level cities, just one level behind Yunsheng City. However, they each govern an area of nearly a thousand miles, and each has a population of 3.5 million, which can be regarded as a country.
Despite their large population, they are actually different from other demon clans. Everyone in the Yao clan practices martial arts, relying on their talent, and almost all have good martial arts skills.
Qiantian Mountain has more than 4 million people under its jurisdiction. Subtracting the women, old and young, there are at least 1 million people who can wear armor. Among them, there are millions of third-level warriors, one hundred thousand martial arts masters, and even three thousand secret martial arts masters.
In addition, there are also subordinates and vassals of Zhucheng, who can easily gather millions of troops.
Therefore, when it was at its peak, it could control seven provinces. Even if the situation shrinks at this time, it still dominates the four provinces and has a stable territory. It is truly the number one force in the east and west of Yunlu.
According to Zong Shou's own guess, the reason why Zong Weiran failed to raise an army and unify Donglin was probably because he was hindered by the Yunlu sects and could only shrink into a corner.
Although cities like Lianhai City and Fenghua City have 3.5 million people, less than 200,000 can be brought to the battlefield. There are less than 3% of the elites who can compare with the demon clan soldiers in Qiantian Mountain, and there are only a hundred secret martial artists at most.
However, among the human cities, this strength is actually pretty good.
But in his memory, these two big cities had collapsed when the spiritual tide started.
Lian Fan opened the conversation and no longer had any scruples: "Yun Sheng City is quite well-informed, so I have heard a few things. Lian Haicheng and Fenghua City are fighting for a spiritual stone mine, and they are fighting endlessly. There have been more than ten battles. It is said that the surrounding cities have also intervened and sent troops and generals. Two months ago, both sides mobilized more than half a million soldiers. Most of these victims fled because of this. When the soldiers passed by, There has always been no grass growing. It was already arid, and even if there was any food in stock, the temples would be searched until everything was gone. It is said that one hundred thousand people have died of starvation."
Zong Shou raised his eyebrows and felt a slight wave of emotion in his heart. Spiritual stone? This is something even rarer than the beast crystal. It can also be used to make talisman weapons, refine elixirs, perform spiritual arts, or extract true energy to replenish it. It can also be absorbed directly, and the ability to increase cultivation is just because it is purer and has fewer hidden dangers. It is regarded as a treasure by all high-level martial arts and spiritual masters.
It's just that the number of these spiritual stones is rare, and even the sects of the Holy Land Ling Mansion are all greedy for them.
This battle involving nearly a million people was probably supported by the forces of these sects in order to compete for the source of the spiritual stone. It only suffered for the people who always lived here.
I have forgotten that this era is a chaotic world where the weak eat the strong, turbulent, and eat people without spitting out their bones.
With a calm expression, he glanced at the figures on the road with dirty clothes, dull eyes, and a look of despair. Most of them were carrying their children, swaying as if they were about to fall down at any moment.
These people saw two cloud-turning vehicles from a distance, and seemed to see some hope. But when they saw the car body and the wildebeest, both suspended in the air and four feet above the ground, they all moved forward again in disappointment.
Zong Shou thought for a moment and then took off a brocade bag from his body. He took out a part of it and threw it to Lian Fan.
"You can give these hundreds of beast crystals to the two city lords for me. I don't care how they use them, at least give these people a way to survive!"
In a disaster place, food must be extremely expensive. Although the hundreds of third-level beast crystals in his kit are a huge amount of wealth, they are still not enough.
With the addition of the fifth-level mortal crystals and the ten fourth-level beast crystals presented by Xu Zhengyuan, the Lord of Yunsheng City, it is barely enough. Unfortunately, this place is remote and there is probably no branch of Sanriku Bank. He had a huge fortune, but he couldn't use it.
To the east is Yunlu. Fifty taels of silver can supply a commoner for a month. And one fourth-order fine beast crystal can be equivalent to one hundred third-order beast crystals worth one hundred thousand grain silver.
That's why when Zong Shou shouted out the sky-high price of ten thousand third-level beast crystals in Yunsheng City, Zong Ling scolded him for being a prodigal.
Because in this era, there are too few beast crystals, the ratio of hunted spirit beasts to produce beast crystals is less than 11, and there are many practitioners who need these beast crystals. Only then can these fine beasts and fine stones be sold at a sky-high price.
Careful calculation shows that there are often only one innate among millions of people in the cloud world. However, a Xiantian realm powerhouse went through hardships, hunted with all his strength, and ignored his training. After a year of hard work, he could only harvest less than ten fourth-level beast crystals. Its value can naturally be imagined.
There were sixty fourth-order beast crystals in that bag. Even when food prices are skyrocketing, it is more than enough to feed more than one million people for a year.
Zong Shou also expected that the city lords of Lianhai City and Fenghua City could not all be used for disaster relief. Most of those beast crystals will be wiped out by greed.
But as long as these two people don't want their people to die, some of it will leak out from their teeth.
Just a few are enough for these people to survive.
Na Lian Fan took the bag and couldn't help but look stunned. Some were puzzled and looked at Zong Shou intently, seemingly in disbelief. Then without saying a word, he immediately mounted a wind horse and left quickly.
At this moment, Li Yunniang also drove to catch up and stopped aside. After hearing this, he subconsciously laughed: "But I never thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would have such a kind heart! It's just that your beast crystal, Crown Prince, has been accumulated by millions of people in Qiantian Mountain. These people are not your people. , not the demon clan. When you use these beast crystals to do good deeds, have you ever considered the welfare society for the millions of real demon clan people you have in Qiantian Mountain?"
When Chuxue heard this, she suddenly became angry and said angrily: "They are almost starving to death. Can we just ignore them? Li Yunniang, do you have any conscience?"
Li Yunniang sneered and said with disdain: "These people are displaced because their city lord is incompetent. The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince of Qian Tianshan, so these people should not be cared for. Should they live or die? It is better for useless people to die. Save food from wasting. Years of wars in Yunlu have resulted in countless deaths. How can the crown prince manage it with just one person? Even if those beast crystals are sent over, most of them will be stolen by greed. It’s better to buy the food and distribute it yourself. It’s better one by one”
Chuxue sounded angry at first, but later she felt a little moved. She felt that there was some truth in it. She was short of breath for a moment and turned her head with a look of asking for help.
Zong Shou secretly felt it was funny and glanced at Li Yunniang lightly, but said nothing.
After all, it’s a woman’s knowledge. If they really bought food, in the eyes of those two idiot city lords, what would be their motives for such an unreasonable move? Even the hidden sects hiding behind these two people would be wary.
The most important thing is that he doesn't have the leisure or time at the moment. He would not be stupid enough to risk his own life for others.
However, what Li Yunniang said before is actually correct and very reasonable.
But the soul of his Zongshou came from ten thousand years later. How could that relatively peaceful world be indifferent at all
There were many bloody killings in his previous life, and practicing the Styx Death Sword made him see life and death very lightly. Indifference to human life, whether your own or that of others.
Therefore, we are always vigilant. If a person does not have any compassion, how is he any different from an animal or a lunatic
In his memory, the wealth Zong Weiran left him had little to do with Qian Tianshan's income. Even Yin Yang said the same thing. Therefore, he can naturally squander the money at will.
Moreover, he acts according to his sect, has his own rules and bottom line, follows his heart, and goes straight to his heart, so why does he need others to comment
It's just that everyone has their own ideas and concepts. He doesn't want to evaluate whether Li Yuniang's statement is right or wrong, nor does he think he is wrong.
After patting Chu Xue's head, Zong Shou glanced at the distance again, and suddenly laughed: "Silly girl! How come these people's life and death are not under my control? They are not my people now, so that's all! Since the young master of your family is in a good mood, it would be good to conquer the East Linyun Continent and become the overlord. By the way, drive away the Lingyun Sect and let them drink from the northwest wind."
Li Yuniang was taken aback by him, and suddenly she was startled. She suddenly realized that the half-demon boy in front of her was definitely not someone she could ridicule at will.
When he heard these words from Zong Shou, he was even more silent. There was no trace of ridicule in my heart, but instead I felt an indescribable sense of heroism, which made people feel heartbroken.
He thought that if this son grows up, it will be possible to unify Donglin Yunlu.
It is an exaggeration to drive Lingyun Sect out of East Linyun Continent, but it is 90% possible to become the overlord of the first continent.
Being able to kill a hundred thousand bloody people at the age of thirteen certainly has this qualification, and he looks down upon all the heroes in the world!
Zong Shou laughed for a while, then he felt a bit cool on the roof of the car. He was alone and laughed a little boringly.
He was about to turn around and return to the car. But suddenly, he felt that opposite him, Xuanyuan Yiren's beautiful eyes were looking at him intently, the stars in his eyes were shining with a hint of joy and admiration.
Zong Shou immediately wrinkled his head and sighed, feeling that his whole body was weak, and all the pride he had before disappeared. Listlessly, he returned to the car again.
Then my mind was filled with things about spirit stones and beast crystals.
These days, Fan almost forgot about the many fourth-order beast crystals he had stored in Sanriku Bank. It wasn't until this moment, when I heard about this spiritual stone mine, that I felt the urgency again.
In just a few mortal years, hundreds of large and small spirit stone mines will appear one after another in the east Linyun Continent. And when the spiritual tide rises, this number will increase several times.
The mass production of spirit stones is also one of the reasons that directly caused the price of beast crystals to plummet rapidly.
It's ridiculous to think about the hundreds of thousands of people fighting to the death for a small spiritual stone mine, resulting in countless casualties.
